Join the band HANSON on their "Walk Around The World Tour," hosted at Belmont by UNITED:FOR CHANGE. Participants will walk one mile from the Bell Tower at Belmont to Vanderbilt (barefoot is optional). Every mile walked will raise funds to support one of five causes that will make a difference, with one dollar donated by the Take The Walk campaign for each walker. The band will educate students on the issues surrounding The Walk and help connect them with existing efforts on campus (i.e. UNITED: FOR CHANGE & Blood:Water Mission). HANSON will be promoting & signing copies of "Take The Walk," which tells the story of individuals taking action to fight poverty and AIDS in Africa through vivid imagery and personal account from HANSON's own experiences. The sale of each book will raise funds to benefit all five causes on TakeTheWalk.net. A short acoustic performance will be given at the conclusion of The Walk at Vanderbilt. Registration starts at 12:15pm with the walk to start at 1pm." 1 Personal/Professional Growth Convocation credit will be given to all participants.
